Ingredients

green olives

There are many types of green olives and not just the sliced rings found in a jar or can. The Manzanilla, Cerignola and Picholine are just a few of the kinds of green olives found in cuisines today. Green olives have a thin firm flesh, some are soft, yet still hold their shape. Every olive has woody pit that is sometimes removed, or can be spit out. The flavor of each olive varies from buttery to tart, though green olives are often milder than black olives and every olive tastes briny and salty.

black olives

There are many varieties of black olives, including the Nicoise, Lugano and Gaeta. Olives grow on trees and must be cured before eating. All store bought olives have been cured and are ready for consuming. The meat of the olive is thin and varies from soft to firm. The flavor is always salty and changes depending on the kind. Some have a strong bite, others are mild and smooth and many are flavored with oils and spices. Olives are used in many dishes and as an appetizer.

water

Water is a substance and chemical compound made up of hydrogen and oxygen. It is clear, fluid, flavorless and odorless. Water is a necessity in nearly every aspect of life, including cooking, baking and hydrating the human body. Water can be served as a cold beverage, or at any temperature comfortable to the mouth and skin.

salt

Salt is a mineral composed mostly of sodium chloride. It is the main flavoring used in food and is naturally occurring in certain foods, such as cheese, beets, meat and celery, plus many others. Salt is white and has finer granules than sugar. Many commercial salts include iodide, while others exclude it. Most salts are white, while some are naturally pale pink with minerals. Salt brings out the flavor of something and can create a tangy mouthfeel, if used in excess.

vinegar

Vinegar is made from alcohol. It can be made from wine, fermented apple, grains and other sources. Healthy bacteria is used to ferment this product. The final result is a thin liquid used to season foods. All vinegar is sour. White vinegar has a sharp sour flavor and is clear. Red wine vinegar is a clear red color and tastes a bit more rounded. Balsamic vinegar is dark red or brown and tastes rich, fruity and sour. There are many other kinds of vinegar, each with its own unique flavor profile. Some types of vinegar are suited to specific flavors and cuisines. It is used in sauces and in dishes both sweet and savory.

olive oil

Olive oil is extracted from the fresh olive, which grows on a tree. Many olives are needed in the extraction of the oil. This is done by a mechanical process and sometimes by a chemical process, though the mechanical method is highly preferred. Olive oil is a golden color and changes slightly due to whether it is extra virgin, or first cold pressed. The flavor of olive oil depends on how it was processed. Lower quality oils will taste mild, while high quality olive oils will have a robust flavor that is green, or may have a spicy quality. Extra virgin and first cold pressed or preferred. Olive oil lends a depth of flavor to any savory dish.
